Askmewhats Version: "Darling!, It's Another Black" Look

Black looks dirty...Black looks dirty-not...

You know what? I don't care! I just want to use this new quad that I got from a dear friend Tine! (Thanks Tine). This is my first Rimmel London e/s palette! I've created yet ANOTHER smokey black look with a bit of twist. If I only use the quad, it looks a li'l bit blah on me so I added something to make it... ahmm... 3 dimensional! LOL So take a scroll down to a smokey black lane and see what I've used to give this look a bit of "oommph"

Final look

Askmewhats Diagram

Step 1:

Apply MAC Beige-ing Shadestick all over lids. Pat on the Silver Grey color all over lids using Dual Tip e/s applicator.

Step 2:

This is the "different part" I've done, I've used Fasion 21 Stick Eyeshadow in Lagoon and spread it on the crease area going a bit above. Pat on gently with fingers to spread evenly. Apply the darkest shade from the Rimmel London quad using the sponge tip applicator.

Step 3:

Using Yumeko's Styling e/s (thanks girl) , apply the shimmery white shadow on the browbone area going to the inner corner of the eye.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

You can now blend everything using a blending brushRe-apply specific colors if needed

In person, it honestly doesn't look plain blackIt has a bit of color that you can't pinpoint! Why am I explaining so much? LOL*I can't be on trial, I sound guilty!*Have a wonderful day everyone!

herroyalbleakness, girl! You are right, Joppa Medium no 3 is turning a bit dark on me now because I grew fairer compared to last year! I think it has to do with "being busy" and no social life..hahaha kaya I wasn't able to go out! Thanks for the reco but you know what? I won't ever touch my brows~ hahahha

This is gorgeous! You know, I've never actually done a black/grey smokey eye before because I always feel my eyes end up looking bruised. Your look is so gorgeous though - you've inspired me to give it a few more tries. =)
